Ingredients
  

  • 3 to 4 lbs beef brisket not corned beef
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 6-8 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1/3 cup ketchup
  • 1 large onion sliced
  • 2 cups low sodium beef broth
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce or coconut aminos/tamari for a gluten-free option
  • 2 tbsp arrowroot powder or cornstarch for thickening the sauce

Instructions
 

  • Combine salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and oregano. Rub this spice mix all over the brisket, ensuring it’s well-coated.
  • Place the minced garlic and sliced onion in the bottom of the slow cooker. Lay the seasoned brisket on top.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the beef broth, soy sauce, and ketchup. Pour this mixture over the brisket.
  • Put the lid on top and set the heat to low. Cook for 8 to 10 hours, or until the brisket is soft and can be cut with a fork.
  • Once cooked, remove the brisket and let it rest. Meanwhile, if you prefer a thicker sauce, transfer the cooking liquid to a saucepan. Mix arrowroot powder with a bit of water to create a slurry, then whisk it into the cooking liquid. Heat until the sauce thickens to your liking.
  • Slice the brisket against the grain and serve with the thickened sauce.
